    • Yes, UES resident here w/ 2 other DC, one who is 10 mos. DD got into 11 and we love it. The commute will totally s*ck and I hope to figure out some way for me to link up w/ other parents to figure out a plan.

      • where do you live? i am on near the 86th crosstown- figured id take the bus to CPW and then down. Are you really going to accept, or still deciding? what are you zoned for?

        • pretty much sure, although the commute is certainly a downer. I will prob. do 86th and down, too. Or, if there's enough of us, maybe we can share the commute (1 parent takes 2 kids) or something. Or, maybe it's worth looking into getting a private bus somehow?

    • You guys should call OSEPO and find out the rules for having a bus to a G&T in district.

        • I really don't see why he gets to make that decision. I would lean on OSEPO
